Superintendent of Public Schools the of office having been sdministered to the princi chief rose, with Mr. D. M. id delivered the following in- Th various officers, th Foreman as interpreter. augara! message. To the national committee and coun- cil, ia national council convened: — i of the nation, have met in accordance with the provisions of the constitution, to legislate for the punlio welfare, Andas it has again become to address you on the present occasion, I would in the first place congratulate you and the country for the orderly and peaceable manner in which the recent election has been conaucted. In all free republican governments, the rights of the people are equal; henoe the lrgitimate powers of the people ace equal. Civiiiaation, intelligence, and morali- ty twouleate obedience to thie principle—an opposite prag'iow would beget strife, violence, and blood-shed, to the disgrace and injury of any community. For the correotness of this sssertion, we need no further proof ‘than to look back and see the evil effects produced by the digbolical acts committed in the country, a short time ago, under colors stained with indelible infamy. These past soenes of disorder and trouble, however, are now refetred to only, as @ warning lesson from which exp -rivng» may devise mvans to avert in future similar ivorgan sing and dangerous Proceedings, Although there uave been many individual outrages and murders perpetrated {n the laud, since the last annual session, yet. on the whole, the condition of the people, individ- Unlly nnd collectively, is prosperous; and while there is cause to ta7urn over che evils that have occurred from the reekires conduct of the drunkard, the corrupt, and the vieious. I am happy to say thet the country has enjoyed many blessings from divine favor, for which we are all iadebted, and ehould manifest our sincere grati- tudo. For it is evident that the health of our peop je bas comparatively heen good; that the industry of the hus- bandman has been amply rewarded with bountiful crops; that the efforts of the temperance societies have been envouraged, aud their numbers greatly increased—and that, by the preaching ef the gospel, many converts have bsen added to the various churchet tublished among us. With these facts before us, and the improvements that are in progress, tl isevery onoouragement to hope that under wise legislation and wholesome laws, re- ligton, morality, and knowledge will ere long make us @ prosperous and happy people. The encouragement of svhools and the means of education should, therefore, ever form the gravest consideration of legielative delibe- ratioos. The district school system, uoder competent teachers, has succeeded as well can be expected— acd as tar as [ am iaofort the operations of these sonools. the ourrest year, re been more flourishing than hitherto: but not’ having as yet received the superiatendent’s report, I am unprepared to make any further suggestions on the subject at present; but the report shall be laid before you so soon as it is receiv- ed ‘The buildings authorized by the act of November 28th, 1816, to be erected for the two Seminaries designed for the education of the youths of the oouatry, in the higher branehes, have been contracted for, and the work is now geing on. A plan orsystem for the government of these institutions, will necessarily have to be adopted before they go imto oferation—and which should be di- gested upon such principles as will seoure, as far as pos- sible, equitaole advantages for the admission of pupils. At the last annual session, @ delegation com Messrs, David Vann, C. V. MoNeir and W. P. I) were appvinted for the purpose of visiting the seat of the United states government at Washin; with authori. ty.to bring the unsettled business of the nation with the Juited States to aolose. And | herewith submit for your perusal the doouments containing their correspondence ‘with the officers of the government; also, their memori- als to the President and the congress of the United States, oa the various subjects requiging their attention. From these papers it will be seen that the delegation did not suceved in their mission. Although a very favorable report from the committee on Indian affairs in the Sen- ate, was made upon # portion of the claims submitted— ‘yet, as paual, from the multiplicity of business, or other Sauses, thy action of the denate could not be had on it before the close of the session. As to the special commissioners who were sppoloted to adjudicate Cherokee olaims arising under the [reaty of 1935-’6, itis known that this board had orgenised to rit in Washington ; and sithough the President nad tion to instruct these com- the purpose of transacting th nation, yet, fur reasons never ex- planed, it has pot been done. The great delay on the Part of ‘the United States to settle promptly. justly and equitably, the claims of the Cherokees, both individually aad oxtionally. bas been @ source of great injury and Cisappotutment to all—and it is our unceasing duty to press this matter most earnestly upon the early atten- tion of the United States Government, until it shall have been taken up, considered and settled, detinitively. Happily for the coantry, peace and harmony prevail Wituin our owa borders, as well as with those of every uation Knewn to us—and it will be our sacred duty to endeavor to cultivate -nd preserve this gvod understand. ing permanently. As I shall take occasion to present Special communications, touching other matters for your iuformation and consideration during your present ses- sion, [will conciudy by assuring you of my hearty co- vion in your acts for the public welfare, which may not cunfliot with constitutional principles.

Impartial history will some day record whatever fate Providence may have decreed, the causes which brought about the events which bave just occurred in the capi- tel, in consequence of which it is now to our astonish- ment, indigvation, aud grief, in the power of the enemy. ‘These causes are known to thousands of witnesses, and well understood by those only who truly feel its immense loss to their country. ‘Lhe fact is, that one of the points which defended the entries to the city having been abandoned without any orders, and another point hav- ing been taken at the end of the day en the 13th, after a combat of fifteen hours, it was decided by a meeting of the generals held that night in the citadel. that a ocon- tinued resistance would only expose the city to pillage, and to all the acts of immorality to whioh s savage ene- my abandons himself. This latter was a misfortune which his Excellency wished to avoid at all bazards, and with a view to which he had at the very commence- ment, caused the fortifications to be made at far ad- vanced points. In order to retain, on the other hand, all bis armanent and the ni means to continu the war, without owing them umiliating capitul tion, it’ was resolved to evacuate the city that v night, conducting the whole army tothe city of Gunda- Hidalgo; in order to take the next day, acoord- oy, the road to power of the ene- The troops having already commenced the march,and having made pie progrese on the road, it became known, as much to our satisfaction as surprise, that th people, who the day before, although pers by the army and the valiant National Guards, had taken no part in the struggle, haa undertaken on their o: ac- count the extermination of the invaders.

General Santa does not despair on account of these misfor- nor on account of ingratitude, which is still worse. His Excellency renounoes power, and yet it is possible that stupidity may join with malice to add absurd calumnies to his other immense disasters. He abandons power, and with it consigns three facts to history for his eternal honor. Firstly, that at the north, at the east and at the capital, ‘although with ya- rious fortune, he has been found confronting the ebe- of his country, appearing at all points of the bat- tle, and in those most ex to danger; secondly, that in all the States their respective authorities, as well individuals as corporations, remain in the free exercise of 1 inctions and in the enjoyment of their respective thirdly, that the nation, and the government which may be called to preside over it, will have absolute liberty to uct as mey seem proper with regard to the question of war or with the United States, since it has been proves that neither the presence of their cannon hor the approach of a fan, which has since become « reality, have had apy influence on what was due by the iment of his exoellencyGen.
